BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2024 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — A major charitable event is just days away, and it will benefit thousands of people across South Florida. We thank Boca Helping Hands for sharing this advisory with BocaNewsNow.com:
Supporters of Boca Helping Hands (BHH) will pass go at the 2024 MONOPOLY® & Casino Night gala on Saturday, April 13 at 6 p.m. at The Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club, 2425 West Maya Palm Drive, Boca Raton. At the MONOPOLY®-themed event, guests will enjoy delicious hors d’oeuvres and dinner, partake in a Chance Wall and auctions, and play casino games before dancing the night away.
Event co-chairs for the gala are Gloria Hosh and Reagan Heidelberg. Committee members include Ronnie Bidder, Yoli Brennan, Susan Brockway, Andrea Chang, Melanie De Vito, Robin Deyo, Justin Ely, Christie Galeano-DeMott, Olivia Hollaus, Zoe Lanham, Mark Malis, Janean Mileusnic, Yvette Palermo, Antonio Postorino, Jesse Prive, Amy Seidman, Linda Spielman, Trisha Vaca, and Yasmine Zyne-Coleman.
“We’re looking forward to another glamorous Monopoly & Casino Night following last year’s success in celebrating BHH’s silver anniversary,” Heidelberg said. Hosh added: “We are thrilled to be a part of raising the necessary funds for BHH’s programs through this exciting event.”
The event’s unique theme was inspired by Boca Helping Hands’ Board President Gary Peters, a two-time National MONOPOLY® Champion. When Mr. Peters joined the Board, he thought hosting a Monopoly tournament would be a fun way to raise funds for the organization. The event has since grown and evolved into the larger affair that it is today while retaining its theme and other elements that honor its origins.
Proceeds from the event will help assist 35,000 people in the South Florida community through BHH’s various programs, including hunger relief, job training, healthcare, emergency financial assistance, childcare, and weekend meals for Palm Beach County schoolchildren.
